‘SNL' Cold Open: Biden Bids Farewell to Chinese Panda (video)
[Rolling Stone] SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE opened with President Joe Biden (Mikey Day) welcoming "Chinese dignitary" Tian Tian (Bowen Yang), one of the three pandas that were transported from the National Zoo in Washington, D.C. to China earlier this month."I’m honored to be here, but am I the only one that was surprised that the presidents of the two biggest economies in the world met, and everyone’s just like, ’What’s up with the pandas?'" Yang said behind the presidential seal. "I mean, I get it. I’m hot, I’m smart, I’m alluringly asexual, but there have to be bigger issues, right?" Biden met this week with Chinese President Xi Jinping, who indicated that his country will send more pandas to the U.S., calling them "envoys of friendship between the Chinese and American peoples." After the departure of Tian Tian, Mei Xiang and their cub, Xiao Qi Ji, only four pandas remain in the states.  Posted by: Besoeker 2023-11-19 |
